The HBO television series, Game of Thrones, has mostly been filmed in Northern Ireland and now fans can see its props and costumes in an exhibition at Titanic Belfast.

Some 100,000 fans have already visited the free exhibition, which has been in Canada, USA, Brazil and Holland.

The costumes made in Belfast for the series were lovingly created in minute detail and then muddied and scuffed to make them look used.

Northern Ireland Screen and the Tourist Board say the exhibition is a chance for tourism to capitalise on the success and notoriety of Game of Thrones.

The series has been enthusiastically supported by Northern Ireland's first and deputy first ministers, despite its risqué and sometimes very violent scenes.

Fans will be able to chart the events in the stories by the items on show at the exhibition.

The exhibition runs from 8 - 17 June. Belfast is the final stop on the tour and the 70 items will be used in series four, which starts filming in July.
